The MNZ replied that the video surveillance camera would be installed in the interview room by the end of May 2016, and so a glazed opening would not be installed. We proposed that PS Novo mesto examine the possibility of installing video surveillance in the interview room during renovation works. The MNZ replied that our proposal had been considered, but major renovation works were not anticipated in the police building. We proposed that PS Ormož inspect and if necessary repair the communication devices in waiting rooms for aliens due to the constant noise coming from them. The MNZ replied that all communication devices would be inspected in cooperation with the expert service; regarding the findings, the devices would be repaired or replaced accordingly. Furthermore, we proposed that PS Ormož remove the Govorna naprava sticker from the door leading to the room for processing aliens. The MNZ replied that the sticker had been removed as no communication device was in the relevant room. Finally, we proposed that PS Ormož examine the possibility of switching off the communication device in the room where a detained person is speaking to their lawyer in order to avoid any possible complaints that the communication device enables police officers to listen to private conversations between the detained person and the lawyer. The MNZ replied that the PS would provide a suitable room under video surveillance for private conversation between detained persons and their lawyers until they find a technical solution for disconnecting the communication device. During the visit, we proposed that PS Ravne na Koroškem eliminate the defect in the communication device in room no. 2 for shorter detention and that the police officers regularly examine the functioning of communication devices in both detention rooms. The MNZ responded that the defect in the communication device had been eliminated, and police officers had been warned to regularly examine the functioning of the device and immediately inform the relevant service if the device malfunctions. Furthermore, we proposed that PS Ravne na Koroškem examine the possibility of providing suitable equipment (in spite of the possibility to borrow it), which would enable audio and video recording of interviews. The MNZ replied that purchasing equipment for audio and video recording of interviews had not been foreseen; if necessary, the police unit may borrow it. We also proposed that PS Ravne na Koroškem move the camera in the reception room in front of the detention rooms so that its field of vision is wider (to see the entire area, including the hallway for receiving detained persons). The MNZ replied that a new camera would be installed in the hallway for receiving detained persons. We proposed that PS Sevnica provide suitable equipment to enable audio and video recording of interviews.
